Embellishments....everywhere!

Hi everyone! This is my organized mess...near my glue gun.....it is lots of embellishments to add to any project. I got one of those old printer/stamp trays at goodwill but i thought it was a shadow box for collectibles. I first painted it pink...but pink was not always good for my shows (cause I like to sell small goodies from this tray). I then painted it cream so it would be more versatile.

Old jewelry...ya know sometimes ya break a piece or lose one earring.....plus sometimes at thrift stores

you can get a whole bag for a few dollars. Old jewelry makes great embellishments.

I love buttons....here it is only some brass ones. Brass or gold buttons add a regal quality to a project.

Here are bits and snippits....of things.

I like old domino's, old glasses (glue/decoupage a pic on the back), barrettes, scissors, and dice.

Easy Light box

If you find it hard to trace an embroidery pattern and want a cheap easy fix....go to your dollar store.....buy a clear plastic storage container (with a flat surface on the bottom) and a battery operated tap light. Place the taplight under the clear box (which is flipped over). Place pattern on light box and muslin over the pattern...trace design. This is very portable too.
